The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
College attainment rose 3.6 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 25.7% to 29.3% - more than the combined survey margin (±1.9pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is smaller than the combined published margin of error, so no real change can be claimed.
Preschool enrollment changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (33.6% then, 37.1% now; margin ±10.6pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is within the margin, but each of the last 3 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
Disconnected youth changed less than the survey can measure between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys (11.5% then, 8.8% now; margin ±4.1pp). The newest releases lean upward: each of the last 3 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*
